thanks! Painting was a hobby for me 5 years ago, look what happened with that

I went with just the plans as opposed to the kit. I figured just go all out, and if i make some bad cuts I can just live with it. thankfully wasn't too bad, made one kinda off cut but it made no difference, a little wood flour and you'll never know.

Going slow, i just faired the tops of the stringers this weekend and finished giving any bare wood a coat of epoxy. I'll bring the boat inside the house the next couple days and pour the foam inside the house, then bring it back outside to the garage to shave it. I can't get my garage nearly warm enough to pour the foam.
